They can see the future
So no one here has any clue?

They're risky as hell cause none of it matters. Eventually one of those extreme risk extreme reward trades is going to work, a combination of these leads to the ridiculous returns

I used to do the simulator way back on investopedia. There were people there making billions so I looked into it. Turns out the futures weren't priced realistically. You could buy at any strike price or something if remember correctly. It's probably something similar to that.

Yeah but these guys aren't buying futures. It could be a glitch or something, but their trading patterns seem legit.

theres a cheat or something i forget what it is but they aren't truthful cause otherwise they would do it with real money
remember, you can't just 1.3m shares at one price in one go

lol i played this in high school w/ my club
there was i trick i discovered that i think involved me shorting companies about to split and then the shares would adjust price in marketwatch or something over night, but before market open i would place a cover order iirc and it wouldn't update the price
i can't remember exactly, but there are tricks you can find
